Where my application's database is stored

Question

I`m new to Android developement. I want to know by adding this code where the database physically exists in my application folder.

SQLiteDatabase myDB = info.this.openOrCreateDatabase("DatabaseName", MODE_PRIVATE, null);
 myDB.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "
     + TableName
     + " (Field1 VARCHAR, Field2 INT(3));");
 Toast.makeText(this,"Database Created", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
   /* Insert data to a Table*/
   myDB.execSQL("INSERT INTO "
     + TableName
     + " (Field1, Field2)"
     + " VALUES ('Raj Gaurav', 24);");

If you want to access you data base you can use path as:

private String DB_PATH = "/data/data/"
                        + mycontext.getApplicationContext().getPackageName()
                        + "/databases/";

`File file = mycontext.getDatabasePath("DatabaseName");` it's possible that file does not exist. it is posible that parent directories of file doesn't exist, too. – Selvin Jun 02 '11 at 13:34
